The only place I’ve been in Europe is France and that was more than 10 years ago! So I am excited to see everything listed on the itinerary. How about you Ali? Phil, have you been with Contiki before? Are you all going alone or with friends?

This is my first time doing a solo trip as well! Nervous but also excited! I can’t wait :)

Wow that’s exciting Carlene! Where else are you planning to go? This is also my first solo trip! As for where I’m most excited I might (sadly) have to say returning to Venice. I was there summer ’09 along with some other places and it captured my heart. have to be careful though, I do have a bit of a fetish for their beautiful glass :P.

This will be my first Contiki tour and I’ll also be traveling solo. I’ve been to London and Venice (also in ‘09) but both cities have so much to offer that going back is worth it! Paris and Amsterdam are the two stops I’m really looking forward to seeing, but you’re right about the itinerary, Maybellina, it’s a great line up!

Wow! So Europe is not the first time for most of you~ That’s cool! I am doing some research about all the different places that we will be visiting just to get an idea about what to do during the free time and about the history of each place~ I wish I can travel longer but I’ve used all my vacations hee hee~ Another time!

Hi Kelly =). Wow is it really full?! I wonder who else is on our tour we haven’t met yet. To ask a question you Maybellina mentioned earlier what are people packing and in what? i heard that they prefer suitcases and that there is a size limit so just curious. SO EXCITED!
